Software Manufacturing Test Engineer, Missiles
Anduril Industries · Costa Mesa, California, United States
About this role
## About Anduril Anduril Industries is a defense technology company on a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By applying the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century’s most innovative companies to defense, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built, and sold. Anduril’s family of systems is powered by **Lattice OS**, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a real-time, 3D command and control center. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to delivering cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military—**in months, not years**. ## About the Team (Barracuda Manufacturing) The **Barracuda Manufacturing Team** is responsible for rapidly iterating and building cutting-edge defense hardware for the Warfighter. This includes work across the manufacturing value chain, such as: - Design for Manufacturability (DFM) - Tool design & selection - Process creation & optimization - Vendor sourcing & interaction - Quality planning - Work documentation for hardware owned by the Manufacturing Engineer ## About the Job As a **Software Manufacturing Test Engineer**, you will build, scale, and maintain the software that drives Anduril’s manufacturing test systems. Your primary focus will be developing **production software** that tests complex hardware systems, integrates with laboratory instrumentation and DAQs, and manages the data produced by test stations. You’ll bridge low-level hardware control with high-level test automation by writing robust, reliable production code in **Python** and **C#**, targeting **Linux/Unix** (and ideally **NixOS**) runtime environments. You’ll also derive software test requirements from hardware schematics and system specifications, author automated test sequences, and deploy complete software suites to factory test racks. You’ll work closely with development and firmware engineers to refine test coverage as product designs evolve, resolve hardware-software integration failures on the floor, and ensure deterministic software deployments across the manufacturing line. ## What You’ll Do - Own software manufacturing test activities in production, ensuring test station uptime, operator usability, and smooth factory throughput - Develop and maintain **PLC-integrated** station control software (Modbus TCP for rig actuation, interlocks, and sensor acquisition), including tooling to import controller tag exports and validate them against expected schemas - Build hardware-free simulation environments (containerized station images, virtual CAN replay, device simulators) for development and regression testing without occupying hardware - Design, build, and maintain production test suites primarily in **Python** (hardware control, test sequencing, instrument automation) and **C#** (test executives, operator interfaces, background services) - Integrate test applications with sensors, DAQs, programmable power supplies, electronic loads, and vehicle compute hardware - Implement low-level hardware communication using embedded protocols including **UART, CAN, and RS-485 / RS-232** to command, flash, and validate devices under test (DUTs) - Deploy, configure, and debug manufacturing test systems on **Linux/Unix** using terminal tools, SSH, and network debugging utilities - Use **Nix / NixOS** to manage reproducible manufacturing test
